THEY WILL BOYCOTT.

Notwithstanding the decision of the Supreme Court, the Good Samaritans, No. 1 (not the rat concern), will continue to direct their efforts against the liquor dealers. President Luddington is a bold man to thus defy the dictum of the gray quintette of the Supreme bench. Ap- parentIy in order to make their defiance more stinging, the Good Samaritans have hired hall in the same building with the WORKMENS ADVOCATE, where they openly exhort their large audiences to boycot a business which is under the special protection of the State and Ma tional governments.

When pair of red lips are upturned to your own, With no one to gossip about it, Do you pray for endurance to let them aloneY We'll, maybe you debut l doubt 1t. When a sly little hand you're permitted to

A Card to the Public

A word of warning to the public that if carefully read and considered will not only tend to protect but result in great saving to the consumer. There has been a manufacturer's advertising scheme in vogue for some time, and this dodge be- ing attended with more of less success, others are resorting to the same methods. The following are the objects in view: Simply to employ unskilled labor to man. ufacture some particular article of mer- chandise used largely by tE, consumers, they agreeing to advertise the same very extensively for every dealer who will take the article to retail. Many dealers are duped into selling the article from the simple fact of it being advertised so extensively and with no expense to themselves, thereby not only advertis- ing the article but also calling the atten- tention of the public to their place of business, but you will find as rule the article has no real merit.
 Now as an illustration we will take, for instance, a gents calf shoe, adver- tised throughout the country at $299 and $3.0O. Now any one having taste for looks, neatness or finish, fit or style, can hardly suppress a smile and exclaim on seeing this shoe, "Oh, what rough, homely-looking shoe" But the dealer will reply with an air ofassurance, "fes, but the business is in the shoe.' Of course, he means by that it contains great power of endurance. But now to prove beyond any question of doubt that you can buy gents calf button, bal moral or congress shoe for $250 with ! style, fit, finish and neatness and work manship apparent in every desirable point of the shoe, and as for the dura- bility, solidity and wear of the shoe we are willing to stake one or two hundred dollars that this shoe we sell for $2.50 per pair, all conditions of wear being equal, will out-wear this great boasted $2.99 and $500 shoe. The money tc wager and the shoe for the test can be 1 found at M. DILLON X Co.'S, S6 Church | street.

\ TRICK OF THE BOSSES.

Nothing so strongly illustrates the ap- parently united and determined desire of greedy capital to keep workingmen and women in a weak and pauperized condition, us the ease with which some em- ployers can shut down their shops for repairs and improvements, or to get rid of the surplus stock in their warerooms. \ few days ago the report appeared in the capitalistic press that the Candee Rubber company was about to shut down for three months, which, of course. was meant to frighten their slaves and pre- pare them for the the real dose about to be administered We are now informed that the shop will shut down for only one month, which announcement has caused a sigh of relief to burst forth from the merchants, tenement house lords and real estate agents into whose cotters goes the mere pittance paid to labor for the vast wealth it produces. Thus it will continue to be until the toiling millions unite as one man to take the just reward of their toil: until our leaders show more honesty of purpose and backbone; and labor organizations make up their minds to carry out the grand. humane principles for which they have been in. stituted, instead of allowing their meet ing places to become sinks of iniquity, recruiting grounds for the two corrupt old parties, and the haunts ot political heeers and corrupuonists.

IRELANDS PATRIOT.

The anniversary of the birth of the Irish patriot and martyr, Robert Elm met, who was judicially murdered by Lord Norbury and the minions of Brit ish misrule in Ireland in 1903, was celebrated by the Emmet Club at the Atheneum on Friday evening of last week The programme consisted of a song by Mir. Frank Donnelly entitled "My Emmet's No More," after which General Thomas Francis Burke followed with very able address on the life and times of Emmet, and review of the Irish national movement from lf9S to the present day, that was listened to with the closest attention by the audi ence. If men would only profit by the lesson contained in the life and death of Robert Emmet there would be fewer men willing to sacrifice the noblest things in life to further selfish ends, and no man could be found in arms against the cause of liberty and right,

make use of one of their well-worn weapons--barefaced, slanderous misrep- vaccinations by saying Hotchkiss ap- pointment is the result of bargain made between the republican" leaders and Herbert c. Baker, the late labor can didate for Governor. No one who has watched the tactics used by the two old parties to perpetuate their power and strengthen their grasp on the throat of the nation is surprised at such state ments, but it does seem strange that the average politician cannot understand that intelligent workingmen have no faith in the shallow professions of friend ship of either the republican or ''dem- ocratic" party, and that their confidence in time-tried and self.sacriiicing leaders cannot be shaken by the lies set afloat by those who live but to enjoy the spells they pIunder from the people.

 X meeting of those bosses was held in Smiths Hall on last Saturday evening, at which D. Clark presided and George Arnold acted as secretary, They voted to adopt the resolutions passed by the boss builders of Chicago and Boston, de- claring they will not recognize any trade union and, in considering any difficulty that may arise between them and their employees, will trect only with each in- dividual workman instead of committees representing any organizations. It Is very evident what this means, but it's no use; labor cannot be downed. It must receive what justly belongs to it. Two of those present voted in the negative because they believe the workingman has right to organize for his own pro lection.

ANTEDlLUVIAN LIES.

Ridiculous "Democratie" Assertions Log ically Exposed and Properly Classified.
 The Erening Register reprinted last week an article from the Hdrtford 1ele- grdm, (an obscure daily newspaper, in which the old ante election charges of poodle taking on the part of the Labor Party leaders are revised and re-hashed. We note with interest the desire of the Register to avoid all responsibility in the publication, and at the same time we ap- preciate it's vain endeavor to destroy the Labor Party in embryo.
 The article in question states that $10,O00 was paid to the leaders of the Labor Party to put an independent ticket in the field, and and that Herbert C. Baker, the Labor candidate fo. Governor, was one of the recipients of the bribe. The Ielegram's authority for the state ment is MT. Albert H. Walker, of Hart ford, the republican sore-head who made himself notorious last fall by charg- ing verybody in general and nobody in particular, with bribery. At that time Chicago newspaper called him crank, and he brought suit for damages. The Chicago Courts held that he Was crank, and dismissed the suit.
 If therefore, it were true that Mr. Walker made such statement, the fact that Chicago court decided that he was non conlpos, would invalidate his testi- mony, but Mir. Walker emphatically de- nies that he made any such statement The question then, resolves itself into one of veracity between Mir. Walker and the editor of the Telegram, between whom our readers must make their own | choice.
 Several subscribers to the ADVOCATE have dropped into this office during the | week to ascertain the truth in regard to the affair. In response we can only point to the past record of Mir. Baker as an honest and upright man, well known and respected in labor circles throughout the State, and to the record of the Iefe- grums editor, as a traitor and scab to the labor cause, whose associates are at present the most despicable heelers and pimps and whose office is a stamping ground of vice.
 The ADVOCATE cannot undertake to guarantee the future good faith of the candidates of the Labor Party. Neither can we attempt to authoritatively state what Mir. Baker did or did not do, as we are not his keeper but to the best of oul knowledge and belief he will compare favorably with the thing who publishes the charges against him.
 The charge Is too ridiculous upon it' face to be worthy of moments credence Why should the republican party pay Sl0 ,OOO for handful of labor men, wher it notorious fact that the entire 'dem ocratlc" contingent in the Assembly cal be bought, body and-body, for 5000 When the Hartford Telegram has a large circulation as the ADVOCATE vii! be unnecessary to resort to antedilu vian campaign lies to bolster a precarlou financial condition.

iveIy Mt Work Gettlng up . Boom.
Washington, June 12th-A friend OF
John 8. Wise OF Virginia 'saye:
The Sherman campaign in Virginia
and North Carolina has already begun,
and is to be pushed. Malone and j. s.
Wise, in the old dominion, and Sergeant
alarms Ganaday, though his agents in
Norah Carolina, are uncompromislngly
for Sherman, and being politicians OF
nerve and experience are certain 10 give
the opposition something to do. One
time Mr.. Blame made sly overtures to
j.. s. Wise, with o view OF winning him
around. He recognized the young mans
influence end wrote him Q very graceful
and complimentary letter during his
contest with Gen. Lee. He failed of the
desired effect, however. With all of his
|impulsivenees and impressionableness
WISE has kept his allegiance to Sher-
man and is Loyalty assisting in creating
and crystallizing Sherman sentiment,
not only in Virginia, but for use in the
nominating convention. Solid Sherman
delegations from Virginia and South
Carolina are reasonably assured, and
from that territory missionary work in
other portions OF the south is to be
fdirected.
II see that the governor of Minnesota
p%ronounces Nj. Sherman the most avail.
able presidential timber in the country
to-day" said q Pennsylvania politician
lounging in the Office of the Ebbitt
house.
..That is a pretty strong statement to
come from . state that always had secret
leanings Blaineward, and must mean
something. If / remember Alright the
present junior United States senator,
Uushman Davis, went into the last con-
Yention hot for Blaine, and. I am told
had pretty good backing. I have heard
q story to the effect that he controlled
the delegation and that Sabin. who was
an Arthur man. would not have got into
the convention ct all il DAVIS had not
insisted upon his election. At any rate,
there was a pretty strong Blaine senti-
meet in the state. which does o seem
to be cropping MP this year, I am q
little surprised that Minnesota does not
have weakness for Allison. He comes

are almost indentical and whose people
